To become captives set free, and to begin to live within the kingdom of God, now , here on earth, and to begin to live the promises of a life filled with love peace and joy, we must cling to God and his truths. We need to cultivate the silence that allows us to hear him. We need to be vigilant and continually reject temptations of fear and want. Then as we accept the graces of the virtues that we practice ,of faith hope and love, we will remain captives set free.
Really it is very simple. If we aren't distracted by fears and wants we will be available to recieve Gods gifts or peace joy and love. This is what he wants for us. This is what we what too. Let's practice today, become aware of the temptations of fear and want, understand where they are coming from, reject them! You will find yourself, through your effort, growing in the faithg that God does fulfill His promises. You will also grow in understanding the reality that you can live in His kingdom here on earth. It is attainable and your heart will be set free. Free to love and praise God, and to love and respect all you meet.
When we can truly believe, by our efforts, and God's grace, that our wants and fears are going to be cared for my by our most loving and all powerful God, then we can let Go, and enjoy living and sharing God, as captives set free.
